Reflection:

As I get ready to teach this unit I hope my students gain an understanding of what makes a story a story and how a story differs from informational text. I also hope that they enjoy the student activities and are able to do them successfully. It is also my hope that they will gain an understanding of graphic organizers and thinking maps that they will carry on to another book study. I hope that my students will gain a greater understanding of writing and be able to share their thoughts with another and strengthen their creativity.
